Framing it Up

Here is a the framing being done for the deck. Jim is doing a great job. Everything is level and square. His dad was a builder all of his life and loved every minute of it. Rudy said he couldn't wait to go to work every day. Jim has to have some of those genes and he is enjoying this process. Pray that his back loves it, too.
Here is the frame of the upper deck. I came home one day last week and this was all done. Jim is making sure everything is square, level and plum. It really is shaping up and I can't wait to see how it turns out. It is getting easier and easier to imagine what it will look like.



This was done today. Yesterday he put the posts in the concrete and today he began the lower frame. He will continue working on it the next couple days. It is going to be very sturdy.
